A unique reduction system, with the concerted use of KI and Na2S2O4, was involved. The reaction exhibited a wide substrate scope and gave good yields in a short reaction time. The procedure is operationally simple and also applicable for the large-scale synthesis. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=Kunishige Takahiro en-aut-sei=Kunishige en-aut-mei= Takahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=Sawada Daisuke en-aut-sei=Sawada en-aut-mei= Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= en-keyword=Ketoxime kn-keyword=Ketoxime en-keyword=Enamide synthesis kn-keyword=Enamide synthesis en-keyword=Iron catalyst kn-keyword=Iron catalyst en-keyword=One-electron reduction kn-keyword=One-electron reduction END
